American gossip columnist Elsa Maxwell leaving Onassis' yacht Christina. Monaco harbor 1956.

In Monaco's harbor in 1956, American gossip columnist Elsa Maxwell disembarks from Aristotle Onassis' yacht, the *Christina*. Dressed in a light-colored, double-breasted suit and matching hat, she carefully descends the narrow gangplank that connects the vessel to the stone pier. A man in a short-sleeved shirt follows closely behind. The yacht, flying a Liberian flag at its stern, is secured by thick mooring ropes as a small rowboat bobs in the dark water nearby.
